A companion piece, of sorts, to Uncharted Atlas. Here, I'm generating city maps, using a variation on the algorithms in this paper by Chen et al.

I started this project in March 2016, shortly after releasing Uncharted Atlas. I was never very happy with it, so it languished unreleased for a long time. Looking back now, I can't really see what I thought was wrong with it. The code is absolutely horrendous though.

There are pen and ink drawings generated based on this project for sale in my shop.
